PT Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Indonesia (HMMI) is an automobile manufacturing plant located in Cikarang, Bekasi Regency, Indonesia. The plant and a separate sales company, PT Hyundai Motors Indonesia (HMID) are wholly owned subsidiaries of Hyundai Motor Company.[1]

HMMI replaced the role of the locally owned Hyundai Indonesia Motor (renamed to Handal Indonesia Motor since November 2020),[2] which held rights to assemble Hyundai cars in Indonesia since 1996,[3] while HMID replaced the role of Hyundai Mobil Indonesia (HMI), the locally owned distributor of Hyundai cars in Indonesia from 1999 to 2021.

The plant is built in a land in Cikarang and has been operated since the second half of 2021 with the annual capacity of 150,000.[4] Half of the output will be exported to the neighbouring countries in Southeast Asia. A total of US$1.55 billion (Rp 21.7 trillion) will be invested to the plant along with the future product developments until 2030.[5]

The HMMI plant has engine, outfitting, painting, press and car body factories, Mobility Innovation Center (which houses the Research and Development team), and also among others. It is also characterized by the application of various eco-friendly methods. Some of the plant's electricity is produced with solar power generation facilities, and volatile organic compounds were minimized by the water-soluble painting method. Furthermore, air pollution reduction facilities were used to reduce air pollution and heat loss was minimized by applying far-infrared ovens to the painting process.
